I use webpack in my project.
After a few months I've decided to update this project (that is my website), and after npm install
and webpack serve
I've encountered these error that I can't solve:
> webpack serve
[webpack-cli] You need to install 'webpack-dev-server' for running 'webpack serve'.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token {
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 2
npm ERR! @ start: `webpack serve`
npm ERR! Exit status 2
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the @ start script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.
I've tried:
- deleting node_modules and package-lock.json and running
npm install
again - updating packages to the last version
- reinstalling node.js
- solution to these post, but didn't work for me.
I don't really know why this problem is happening. Oh, and I think it's important to mention that I was experiencing even more errors (related to python and stuff), but after I install Visual Studio Desktop Development with C++ that was the only error that persisted.
